IEEE International Conference on Networking

ICN'01

July 11-13, 2001 - CREF, Colmar, France

</bold></center>

GENERAL INFORMATION

The 2001 International Conference on Networking (ICN'01) is sponsored by IEEE/Comsoc, IEEE/Computer, by IEE, by SEE and by WSES. ICN'01 is organized by academic, research and industrial societies will be held at the Technical Institute, Colmar, part of the University of Haute Alsace, France, from Wednesday July 11, 2001 to Friday July 13, 2001. The city of Colmar is ideally situated in the eastern part of France, near the German and Swiss borders. The city of Colmar has been working on its own Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) project, called OASICE, including LAN interconnection, PBX interconnection and interactive video. An exhibition illustrating these topics will be organized for industrial companies and development research institutes.

In order to encourage closer interaction between academic and industrial ATM research communities, we solicit both academic research papers and industrial contributions.
